Amazing Tour!

Janina_R, Aug 2025

Alex is a fantatic guide. He picked us up in the morning and took us to all of the coolest spots. He really knows his stuff. He is funny and put us at ease immediately. He gave us a fantastic recommendation for lunch. The spot was lovely. We saw so many places and were able to do a bit of shopping. Some of our best photos came from this tour. It was great!

Unforgettable Family Tour of the French Riviera with Alex!

Mary_E, Jun 2025

We had an incredible day exploring the French Riviera with Alex as our guide. I traveled with my husband and our two young kids (ages 6 and 8), and Alex went above and beyond to make the experience fun, flexible, and memorable for all of us. I initially told him we just wanted to see the highlights of the region and Monaco—but as he got to know our family, he quickly tailored the day to match our interests. When he learned that our 6-year-old is obsessed with fish, Alex suggested a stop at the Oceanographic Museum in Monaco. I had no idea it even existed, and it ended up being the absolute highlight of our son’s entire Europe trip! Alex is incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and clearly passionate about what he does. His love for the area and genuine care for his guests made the day truly special. We would recommend him to anyone—families, couples, or solo travelers. A five-star experience from start to finish!

Memorable one day tour French Riviera

Bernadette_A, Apr 2025

Alex is a good guide, friendly and knows a lot about French Riviera and it’s history. Maybe because he was born here. He arrived on time to pick us up and manage the one day tour that suites our conditions. I bring my elderly mom :)

Superb day on the French Riviera.

Erin_P, Oct 2024

My husband and I had a fabulous day visiting Eze, Monaco, Antibes and St. Paul de Vence our tour guide, Alex, was absolutely fabulous. We even enjoyed a visit to Prince Rainer’s car museum in Monaco. A fabulous day!

Wonderful day in Southern France

Andrei_L, Sep 2024

Very memorable and informative tour. Alex was great in following our pace and interests and providing valuable comments and information. He is very knowledgeable and sociable and easy to deal with. Strongly recommend.

Wonderful way to see so much in a day

Kelly_G, Sep 2024

From the very beginning of booking this tour Alex responded promptly and was very helpful offering to pick us up at our Airbnb. The car was incredibly clean and comfortable. Alex was professional, super knowledgable and did a great job from start to finish. This was a tour well worth the price.

Great experience

Ana_S, Aug 2024

It was a great tour and we saw a lot in only 1 day. Alex was very friendly and helpful . Much better than a busy group tour

Great time in the French Riviera

Melissa_L, Jun 2024

This French Riviera Excursion was one of our favorites! Alex was a great guide! We enjoyed our trip into Monaco and seeing the track of the Formula 1 race. Views were amazing!

The best way to see the French Riviera

Anonymous, Apr 2024

We could not have been happier with our day on the French Riviera than what was provided by Alex Guyatt of Riviera Tours. We had a challenging combination of rookies and veterans in our group. Alex crafted a tour that included the "must sees" as well as some surprises that pleased us all. He listened to input from everyone as the day went on and adjusted the plan to best meet our needs. As a result we ended up spending extra time at places he could see really touched us, and yet not missing anything of importance. His heritage is both English and French, a perfect combination for this role. He is a "can't miss" for a customized day on the Cote d' Azur.

Great tour

Rick_W, Feb 2024

Alex provided a great tour, with the history and background of the various locations. We had some great scenic locations for viewing cities, etc. would definitely recommend this tour and Alex.

Excellent private tour of the French Riviera

Karen_M, Jan 2024

Our tour guide Alex was absolutely fantastic. We decided on a private tour so we could linger longer where we wanted and be a bit more flexible than what the traditional tours offer. Alex will adapt to what you want where possible in the 9 hour time frame. He went out of his way to accommodate our needs. We would definitely choose Alex again and thoroughly recommend him. The Luxury sedan was impeccable and his conversation was appreciated.

Wonderful day tour

Christine_Y, Sep 2023

Alex was our guide for the tour. He helped us to plan a day tour which covered almost everything we wanted and added something more than we expected. Thanks to his planning, we have a wonderful day trip along the beautiful rivera.

Best Tour…Book It Fast

Falguni_P, Jun 2023

This was a WONDERFUL tour of the French Riviera, and our guide, Alex, was fantastic! Alex arrived promptly in a nice, clean, comfortable car to begin our tour at 9:00am, and he offered my 8 year old daughter a booster seat. He was prepared with an itinerary, which he allowed us the freedom to CUSTOMIZE to our needs, and he recommended things for us to do that our young children could enjoy. Alex was friendly, kind, accommodating, and incredibly knowledgeable, and he was especially good with my children. We had an AMAZING time! Book this tour with Alex. You will not regret it.

Wonderful day with Alex

John_M, Jun 2023

Alex was great. Enjoyed the tour seeing major sites from Cannes to Monte Carlo. Also plenty time to walk around on our own. Lively lunch at restaurant Alex recommended. Full fabulous day!
